With a shared language, it is possible to build bridges of cultural understanding, community, and friendship. - Stephen Rhodes

Welcome

Our Mission:
We promote and support the teaching of English to adult immigrants in Northern Virginia and welcome their active participation in our community.

Our Vision:
We want our English-learning neighbors to reach their full potential in our community and we strive to assist their efforts by coordinating quality English instruction throughout Northern Virginia. Our ministry consists of trained volunteers and an effective curriculum, and takes place in sites convenient and welcoming to all.

We want to continue to merit the support of the area’s United Methodist Church, which has enabled our success since inception, and other faith-based community organizations, and the community as a whole.
